希爾頓“開始懂了”……
Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton believes her jail sentence was a message from God to change her party-loving lifestyle and become a positive role model for women who look up to her.
In her first interview since she was dramatically sent back to prison last Friday for probation violations in a drink-driving case, Hilton said her imprisonment has served as a life-changing wake-up call.
Her comments were made to veteran television journalist Barbara Walters in a phone-call from the Los Angeles jail where the heiress to the Hilton hotel empire is being held.
"I'm not the same person I was," Walters quoted Hilton as saying on her ABC television program 'The View' on Monday.
"I used to act dumb. It was an act. I am 26 years old, and that act is no longer cute. It is not who I am, nor do I want to be that person for the young girls who looked up to me."
Walters said Hilton sounded "tired but totally aware of what she was saying."
Hilton has said she will not appeal the decision to send her back to prison to serve her 45-day term.
She was released after spending only three days behind bars last week, sparking a public outcry and prompting Los Angeles judge Michael Sauer to order her back to jail.
Hilton, who was dragged sobbing and wailing from court on Friday, suggested she intends to give up her lifestyle of endless VIP parties andred carpets.
"I know now that I can make a difference, that I have the power to do that. I have been thinking that I want to do different things when I am out of here," she said. "I have become much more spiritual. God has given me this new chance."
Hilton said she was considering pursuing work to raise awareness about breast cancer.
帕麗斯·希爾頓覺得她的“牢獄之災”是上帝給她的一個“訊息”，提醒她要改變酷愛派對的生活方式，爲崇拜她的女性樹立一個積極的榜樣。
希爾頓因酒後駕車案後違反保釋期規定於上週五戲劇性的被送回監獄。她在入獄後第一次接受採訪時說，這一劫喚醒了她，成了改變她人生的一個轉折。
資深電視新聞人芭芭拉·沃爾特斯通過電話採訪了這位正在洛杉磯監獄服刑的酒店名媛。
沃爾特斯在本週一ABC電視臺的《觀點》節目中援引希爾頓的話說：“我已經不是原來的希爾頓了。”
“過去的我做了一些愚蠢的事。不過那是在演戲。我已經26歲了，這樣做不再可愛。那不是真實的我，我也不想爲崇拜我的年輕女孩們樹立那樣的榜樣。”
沃爾特斯說，希爾頓的聲音聽起來“疲憊但她完全清楚自己在說些什麼”。
希爾頓表示，她不會再上訴回監獄服刑45天的判決，
希爾頓上週在監獄呆了三天後被釋放，引起公衆的強烈抗議，這迫使洛杉磯的邁克爾·薩奧爾法官將其召回監獄。
希爾頓上週五被拽出法庭時又哭又嚎。她表示要一改從前的生活方式，和永無止境的派對和紅地毯說再見。
她說：“我現在知道，我可以改變，我有這個能力。我這段時間一直在想出去之後做點什麼。現在我更加理智了。是上帝給了我這個新的機會。”
希爾頓說，她正在考慮做一些提高人們預防乳腺癌意識的工作。
